Thom Yorke’s cryptic tweets of the past few days suggest the band is going through the archives and cultivating unreleased material for a new album.
A mysterious posting of a white vinyl record by Radiohead’s Thom Yorke on Monday led to speculation that a Radiohead album may finally be on the way.
The band has not released an album since 2011’s The King of Limbs which only made it to number 4 on the U.S. charts, breaking a five album string of number 1 releases.
It now seems that fans will have to wait a little while for that new release. Although some thought the album post meant a release was imminent, Yorke has made further Tweets stating that the band is in its second day in the studio.
Yorke posted pictures of items that he and long-time collaborator Stanley Donwood were reviewing, saying:
Stanley & me going thru15years of discarded words & pictures..!while overdubs happen in Radiohead studio.2nd day only
Drummer Phil Selway recently told NME that the band felt it was the right time to “start making music” again.
